Update 04/11/2017: I brought a Nexus 6P off eBay a few days ago and I'm already in love compared to my iPhone. Enjoying the experience and would recommend to anyone looking for a new phone! -Jack
Hey guys,
I currently own an iPhone 5S and I'm looking for a new phone for Christmas, since this is slowly dying.

I'm interested in the Samsung Galaxy S7, but I was wondering if anyone else knew of any better Samsung phones? My price range is £250-£300 max.

Anything OnePlus, I've had my OP2 over two years now and performs just as well as it did on day 1. Battery life is still good, no bloat ware, good camera, fast to react. It even survived America, it got thrown off horses numerous times, flew off a Gator doing 20+ MPH and it barely even has a scratch on it. The dual sim capability is amazing, allowed me to use both my UK sim and my US sim whilst in America.

I have a OnePlus 3T, and after owning iPhones (3GS, 4S, 5S), Sony Xperias (Z1, Z5) and a HTC One M9, I have to say that it's an insane phone for the price. I prefer the camera on the Xperias and the speakers but the OLED screen on the 3T is phenomenal. Absolutely no bloatware and dash charging functionality (My phone will charge from dead to full in just over 30 minutes). My biggest let down for the Xperias was the battery life since the screen is so bright and high resolution, I don't have that problem with the OnePlus 3T. You can pick a brand new OnePlus 3T up for just over £300.

My parents both had Samsung phoned, my dad still has a Note 5 (screen is big and that's all he really cares about), and my mum had a samsung Galaxy S6 edge+, but even she has a OnePlus 3T now, same as me XD

Brilliant phones and they perform well also. Look at reviews and compare the features. Mine is currently rooted and running resurrection remix, I couldn't recommend this phone more.

Im using Xiaomi Mi4 and cost me 150€ 2 years ago. You can look for Mi 6, Im very happy with the battery, with the SO, with the updates and everything. Didnt have any problem yet.

Also, as curiosity, Mi4 can run Windows Phone on it, but Im not fan of it so runing Android, and smothly.

I had also a Samsung S4 that was very expensive but was an awesome phone with lot of sensors and functions. One month later, I swiched off all this tools because wasn't necessary and I want to had some battery. I don't know how this will be on the S7/S8 or the new ones

One of the best new phones on the market right now is one that I've just got on order from John Lewis. £259.99 Moto G5S Plus (Dual Rear Cameras) + Free Motorola Headphones. Snapdragon 625 2.0GHz Octa-Core, either 32GBROM/3GBRAM or 64GBROM/4GBRAM. From reviews it sounds a really good phone. Also quite big at 5.5". Not to mention the smart fingerprint reader and NFC (which means Android Pay).

I got the Huawai P10. Its cheap and I personel think its better than samsung "They just explode or catch fire". Its very fast, great sound, great cam and as said before you get alot of phone for no money and it can hold battery 1½ day depends on how often you are checking Adult sides and facebook
